Tribunal Judgment: APC Lampoons Atiku, Obi, Opposition Attacks INEC

The APC has slammed Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, for criticizing the verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal which upheld President Tinubu’s election.

This is against the backdrop of Atiku and Obi attack on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over its conduct of the polls.

Responding to a statement from Atiku’s Media Aide, Paul Ibe, that the election was rigged, the Director of Publicity for the APC, Bala Ibrahim, slammed the PDP candidate, saying it takes a criminally-minded person to understand how a system is hacked.

While stating that he had no problem with the Adamawa State-born politician heading to the Supreme Court to challenge the verdict, Ibrahim labeled him as a bad sportsman.

Lampooning the former Vice President further, Ibrahim accused him of having ‘a compromised mind.’

Meanwhile, the National Working Committee (NWC) of the APC has congratulated President Bola Tinubu over his victory at the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal.

The APC’s NWC stated this in a statement signed by its National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru.

PEPT Judgment: Atiku, Obi Head To Supreme Court

The Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has rejected the judgment of the Presidential Election Petitions Court on the February 25, 2023 poll, describing it as against justice.

Obi, who spoke in Onitsha, Anambra State, acknowledged the Tribunal’s adherence to statutory time frame and expressed respect for the court’s views and rulings but disagreed with the judgment’s rationale and final conclusions.

He announced his intention, in his capacity as a presidential candidate and on behalf of the Labour Party, to immediately challenge the judgment through the appellate process, as permitted by the Constitution.

Highlighting the fact that the Tribunal is not the ultimate authority in the matter, Obi emphasized that the responsibility now rests with the Supreme Court, which he expressed confidence in.

He urged Nigerians to maintain their focus, steadfastness, and commitment to peaceful processes while emphasizing the importance of adhering to the rule of law.

Atiku, while addressing a world press conference at the party’s headquarters in Abuja, said his resolve was borne out of his commitment to entrench a credible democratic process.

The former Vice President, who came second behind Tinubu in the election, said the tribunal judgment affirming Tinubu’s victory failed to restore confidence.

He, however, maintained that the tribunal judgment will not destroy his confidence in the judiciary.
